Anxie hurried to take out her wallet, while Xiao Ran leisurely pulled out 9.5 yuan to hand to Anxie… Anxie was silent for a moment, handed the driver twenty yuan, and told Xiao Ran: “No need… I’ll pay.”
“Really? Great! I’ll gratefully accept your kindness.” Xiao Ran happily put the 9.5 yuan back in his pocket and got out of the car with his cactus.
The driver handed Anxie the one-yuan change, his gaze full of sympathy. “Young lady, you should stay away from people like him! Can’t even be friends! He might sell you out for 9.5 yuan someday!”
“Um… thank you, driver.” Anxie took the money, reflexively thanking him and quickly getting out of the car… She didn’t want to see the driver’s sympathetic look again…
“So slow, Anxie… Let’s go! Take the elevator! Let’s see what expression Yan Qing will have when we walk out together… Haha!” He excitedly prepared to grab Anxie’s arm.
“Oh! The elevator’s here!”
Anxie quickly circled around and ran over… Hoping Xiao Ran wouldn’t do anything weird again.
And Xiao Ran had even asked what Yan Qing’s expression would be? Ugh… he definitely wouldn’t want to know…
☆, Chapter Thirty-Nine
If meeting Xiao Ran this morning was unfortunate, then the luckiest thing today was that there were many people in the elevator, and that guy Xiao Ran couldn’t easily pull Anxie out from the crowd.
Finally reaching the company floor, Xiao Ran jumped out lightly, while Anxie, squeezed among people, had already used up most of her luck today. This resulted in her being stuck in the elevator’s innermost part, forced to follow the other elevator passengers to the top floor…
Xiao Ran looked at the slowly closing elevator door, a pleased smile curling at the corner of his mouth. He wouldn’t admit that he had casually pressed the close button when he came out… There was no one else getting off, and An Xi was short, so she was quickly trapped inside.
Xiao Ran raised the cactus high, spun around, and accidentally bumped into the person behind him. He steadied himself, turned around, and cheerfully said “Sorry” before preparing to leave… But, unexpectedly, he stopped in his tracks after just one glance. How should he put it… the girl he bumped into was incredibly dreamy! Such a rare type!
